It was just after ten pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry night, it hadn't stopped pouring! Paul and I were relaxing there talking over the weekend's sports rankings, waiting around for the sixth telephone call for the day to arrive. Eventually we got a phone call from a lovely women on a business expedition who had arrived at the Sainsburys filling garage in Whiston and filled petrol in her diesel light green Mazda B2600 rental by mistake. She was pretty troubled it seemed, saying "I cannot believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I'm so familiar with filling my petrol car that I totally forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I just advised her to relax and not to fret, and that things like this happen. She managed to relocate the car into a secure space and, as it was just a short distance from us, we could find the lady rather quickly. The wrong fuel was taken out so she could go home to the motel she was residing in. Despite the fact we got fairly drenched, it was all worth the time to watch her drive off contented and not so apprehensive. One more fuel drain in Staffordshire well done in my books!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel container at the back of your garden with unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and commercial properties in Staffordshire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely.

Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a number of containers in a garage, provided that we are able to access it, we can certainly drain it.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Staffordshire we have encountered increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent due to people not being totally sure the right way to use it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly near to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what's the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel car?

Because AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Additionally, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters. If you find you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it at the earliest opportunity. And most certainly do not turn over the engine - not even to maneuver it away from the pump. In cases where you did start the car you would very likely need to have the full fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

If perhaps you find yourself in this position don’t panic! Contact us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination service. Our engineers have the technical expertise and working experience to get you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.


Wrong Fuel in Car in ST19 Postcode - Whiston Misfueling

Just had a great night of sleep! It was 7:30 on a bright Wednesday and we were en route to help an elder lovely lady who put petrol in her diesel rugged Chevrolet Colorado in Whiston. She told us that she had left the petrol station and was stranded on a rural road along the way to see her grandchildren. I popped the location into the TomTom and was on-scene inside 60 minutes. I arrived at the car and drained the wrong fuel from the car. As I was doing the work she told me, "I am becoming relatively absent-minded in my senior years and didn't remember about the vehicle using diesel because I'd only purchased it a short while ago when my former one, which I'd had for more than twenty five years, finally broke down". I got the drain done and she presented me a toffee and said thank you. Such a lovely Staffordshire woman!

We did a wrong fuel retrieval job on the drive of a spectacular residential home in Whiston not so long ago.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Whiston - Fuel Rescue Whiston

It truly was an unsociable hour to be up. It was close to 2:30am and noone was about. It was quite uneventful thus far, and Mark and I were relaxing looking through some old articles. It was a rare restful moment in Staffordshire. Actually it was so tranquil that when my mobile eventually rang it made me jump! The voice on the opposite end said: "I have only just completed my night shift and foolishly put petrol in the sky blue Suzuki Samurai by mistake". We asked him to inform us where exactly the vehicle was situated and we hit the road, reaching him in Whiston less than an hour later. The incorrect fuel was cleaned from the car. He said thank you for coming so promptly. As we were heading back to base we saw two young ladies on the edge of the highway who seemed to have a flat. Obviously we pulled over to help them change it, to their delight.

How to find out if I put the wrong fuel in my car?

If you’ve just filled up at a petrol station and the cars starts to act a bit strange you might start to wonder if you accidentally put the wrong fuel in it.

Well, there are a few things to can check that will be able to tell you:

  1. How is the car responding? There are some very common misfuel symptoms which can be a good indicator of wrong fuel:
    • Loss of engine power – can feel like the car has run out of fuel
    • A lot of smoke (more than usual)
    • Engine coughing or starting to splutter
    • Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
  2. Look at your fuel receipt. It will state clearly if you filled up with diesel or unleaded. If you don’t have the receipt, you can often return to the petrol station where you filled up and give them the date and time (and pump) where you refueled and they will often be able to give you a VAT receipt.
  3. Smell it. Diesel and petrol have very distinctly different smells. Anyone familiar with the motor industry should be able to help you with this. Or you could even get another car to park alongside and smell the fuel caps of both, comparing them to determine what the fuel type is.
  4. Call us to come out and assess the car. In the majority of cases we will be able to tell if the car has been misfueled before beginning work on it. If we discover that the vehicle does not need a fuel drain, you will only be charged a call-out fee.
